(SOUTHERN COLORADO) — Thanks to a series of storms, Colorado's snowpack is above average this time of the year and most across Southern Colorado are right where it should be this time of the year, yet one area has fallen short. As of last week, the statewide snowpack is 131% of normal. With our highest amounts found over the mountains. However, one river basin is still trailing behind. The Arkansas River Basin. at 84% percent of normal, the lowest in the state. If we look at the Arkansas River Basin a little closer, one city, in particular, stands out and is far behind where it should be this time of the year.
